Lots of people in my family have Jewish Sephardic surnames. I guess I should make a deeper research about my ancestors since I have this weird feeling towards Jews and Judaism, I don't know, I have consdered conversion SEVERAL times, but seeing as I am very spiritually confused I alwasys change my mind about evrything, but yeah something always leads me towards Judaism, never ever considered other religions actually, I always go from considering Judaism to then an agnotic state...wadya think?

sidtapia, I have done extensive genealogy research in which I found Jewish ancestors such as Abraham Ha-Levi & Menem Ha-Lavi (de la Caballeria). Also, my YDNA is semetic according to FTDNA. Have you had your YDNA or mtDNA tested? Say for example your immediate dna isn't semetic, Jewish ancestry may still be present in your other lines through intermarriage that occured from the 1500's to present-day Northern Mexico/American Southwest. A genealogy study may help. Hope this helps, best wishes.

I looked in a website of sephardic lastnames and I found my lastnames and the lastnames of my parents. do you know where I can get a DNA test (for less than $130.00 US dlls.?)

Before my genealogy study, I always felt a very strong connection to Jews and everything Jewish. As a young man, I shared this feeling with mother who I thought would say I was silly as our identity was MX-American (interestingly, my family was often mistaken for Italian). To my surprise, she told me that she too had always had the same feeling. In my study, I have learned that many hispanics from South Texas, Northern Mexico and New Mexico descend from Jewish ancestors. This makes me so happy!
